I was very impressed watching Devin, Nets started to win when he made debut: 22-5 run in end 1st quasrter. He is smooth, always smiling and friendly. Great player, Nets fans chanting at the end of game his name. Really cool!!! We have some depth now in roster.Nets: SA and then difficult trip to Southwest Division, Texas triangle and Memphis.

Self-praise is for losers. Be a winner. Stand for something. Always have class, and be humble.

I could get tickets and go to the Utah Jazz at New Orleans Hornets game Friday night.................but the wifey would not want to go. I am torn on this one. What to do, what to do?

No problem, offer her a nice night out or something she wants to do but you don't.

It's a bribe I guess, but that's how things work!!! Enjoy the game!!!

I don't think it is going to happen. Wifey won't want to spend that much since she has zero interest in the game and I don't want to go bad enough to leave her alone on Friday night in Nawlins. No worries though, we can just go to Bourbon St. and get down!

I thought it was a great trade for the Nets. I know, they gave up an aging superstar, but they got some nice pieces in return. I watched Harris tear OSU up several times while at Wisc.

I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammible and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit. - Mitch Hedberg

on this day, March 2, 1962: Wilt Chamberlain sets the single-game scoring record in the NBA with 100 points!!!!

Wilton 'Wilt' Chamberlain was a dominant centre for the Philadelphia/San Francisco Warriors, the Philadelphia 76ers and the LA Lakers and is regarded as one of the greatest players to have graced the NBA. One of his most enduring achievements was the unprecedented 100-point haul he achieved in a 169-147 win for the Warriors over the New York Knicks at the Hersheypark Arena in Hershey, Pennsylvania. To a backdrop of frenzied screaming in the stands, Chamberlain broke his own previous highest points total of 79 before gradually advancing to 98. With less than a minute remaining, Chamberlain slipped free from five opposing players before sealing the landmark with an emphatic slam-dunk. 200 spectators streamed onto the court to acclaim their hero, whose accomplishment was rendered all the more impressive by the fact he was hungover after a night on the tiles with a lady-friend in New York.

Webber didn't play Wednesday, didn't even suit up. Not many NBA players go from the starting lineup one game to street clothes the next game unless they are injured, but that's the wacky world of the Warriors.

Their newest "starter," Webber, who started the three previous games, was deactivated for Wednesday night's game. Great call by Nelson. It paid dividends in what maybe was the Warriors' most uplifting win of the season, a nationally televised demonstration of Warriors magic, leading into the All-Star break.

The perfect position for Webber in this game was down at the end of the bench in a lovely, fawn-brown suit.

Had Webber played, he would have been Bambi crossing the freeway. A guy could get hurt out there. Ask referee Jimmy Clark, who, when the Suns were stampeding downcourt on a turnover-started fast break, ran for his life like a man trying to stay ahead of an avalanche.

Webber, with the Warriors since Jan. 29, isn't in shape yet to play against a slow opponent, let alone against the run-'n'-stun Suns.
